3 Periodic Structures lattice: a periodic arra of points in space. -- The environment surrounding each lattice point is identical. unit cell volume: set of atoms that is repeated in lattice not unique basis vectors: Group of atoms attached to each lattice point in order generate the crstal structure. not unique translational smmetr: base vectors or lattice vectors Usuall these vectors are chosen either: -- to be the shortest possible vectors or -- to correspond to a high smmetr unit cell

4 Eample: -D cells Movement of one translation vector = point of same smmetr not unique b a b Conventional crstallographic unit cell: a larger than primitive cell; chosen to displa high smmetr unit cell Primitive unit cell: has minimum volume and contains onl one lattice point Unit cell defined b translation vectors Man possible unit cells can eplain smmetr

5 Translation vectors and smmetr A lattice translation vector connects two points in the lattice that have identical smmetr: r n1a n b n3c n 1 n n3 integers In our -D lattice: b a b a b a

7 Miller Indices for Crstal Directions & Planes Because crstals are usuall anisotropic their properties differ along different directions it is useful to regard a crstalline solid as a collection of parallel planes of atoms. Crstallographers and CM phsicists use a shorthand notation Miller indices to refer to such planes. 1. Determine intercepts of the plane with the coordinate aes = 3 = = 1

8 Miller Indices Notation Epress the intercepts as multiples of the base vectors of the lattice 1. eample let s assume that the lattice is given b: a iˆ 1 b 1ˆj c 3kˆ. The intercept ratios become: a 1 b 1 c 3 a 1 b 1 c 1 3. Form reciprocals: Multipl through b the factor that allows ou to epress these indices as the lowest triplet of integers: We call this the 1 plane.

9 Another eample Find the Miller indices of the shaded plane in this simple cubic lattice: a a a aiˆ b aj ˆ c akˆ a Intercepts: a non-intersecting intercept at Intercept ratios: a a 1 a a a a Reciprocals: We call this the 010 plane. Note: hkl = a single plane; {hkl} = a famil of smmetr-equivalent planes

10 Crstal Planes and Directions Crstal directions are specified [hkl] as the coordinates of the lattice point closest to the origin along the desired direction: [001] [010] Note: [hkl] = a specific direction; <hkl> = a famil of smmetrequivalent directions [100] [001] Note that for cubic lattices the direction [hkl] is perpendicular to the hkl plane

11 Primitive Vectors Primitive vectors define translation smmetr of cube There are man other periodic vectors in 3-D crstal structure: Set of primative vector translations will get to an atom BCC Bad choice FCC primitive vectors primitive vectors Smmetr of electrons must match smmetr of crstal
